ALFA ROMEO
CODE SYSTEM
To increase protection against attempted
theft, the car is fitted with an electronic en-
gine lock system (Alfa Romeo CODE) which
is activated automatically when the ignition
key is removed. In fact the grip of each key
contains an electronic device which modu-
lates the radio frequency signal transmit-
ted when the engine is started by a special
aerial incorporated in the ignition switch. This
modulated signal is the "password" by
which the control unit recognises the key
and only in this condition can the engine
be started.
